DETERMINATION OF INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION OF STUDENTS: THE CORRUPTION COMPONENT by Olena Oliinyk

“…The results of the correlation analysis in general proved a strong relationship between the attractiveness of the country for foreign students and the absence of corruption (the value of the correlation coefficient is 0.774). At the same time, the most significant in this aspect is the absence of corruption in the executive authorities, because the education and residence of migrant students in the destination country depends more on the executive authorities and university management, which are responsible for the implementation of specific procedures and services. …”
